I REALLY NEED HELP!!!!!
I finally got the plumbing done and the tank full but when i started the tanks return pump things went a little wrong. the pump will start to fill the tank and its starts to drain but every 20 seconds or so a big rush of water flies down the drain and splashes all over( its too much to handle at once i guess) Any suggestions anyone?

Are you using the standard overflow pipes? that come with tank or did you make your own?

Do you have the pipe where the water runs into the sump real far underwater?

Take a few pics of your stand pipe and your sump i'm sure I can help.

I finally have a few pics of the tank set up. It has been crazy the last few months so have not had much time to take pictures. Here are some zoas, shrooms, and clam.

Looking good.

Do you have a full tank shot? I noticed the black substraite and would like to see the full tank shot.
